Maya Pressman of Jaffrey is one of 29 recipients of the 2013 Jeffrey P. Smith Farm Scholarship award presented by The Monadnock Localvores.

The Jeffrey P. Smith Farm Scholarship endeavors to connect young people with agriculture and the natural world around them. The goal is to inspire the next generation of local farmers and local food supporters, by giving regional children an opportunity, through summer camp, to experience sustainable farming practices first-hand and watch their efforts bear fruit.
